Imperial Guard

[Legend Spears]

The Imperial Guard also have a Navy, I?d just get a position at the orbital artillery part of the ship and rain ?Death From Above?.

The Imperial Navy and IG are two seperate outfits.. they hate each other and very rarely get along.
In some cases they 'Accidentally' Drop a Lance Strike or Fusion Torpedo on an IG position. (But normally only if they have a fued or an excuse.)

Then I stand corrected, you learn something new every day.

(now i get how this quote thing works)

id find a space marine to hide behind
or somehow become a grey knight
they are coooooool

Side effects of becoming a grey knight (which, above the age of ten is impossible anyway) are loosing all memories of your past, your identity, most of your free will and in short beeing a human maschine. On the other hand, you ll be safe from chaos taint! Sounds like a good deal, aye? ;p

Anyway, in the guard, I will propably be dead, as soon as i ll leave the chimera. I mean, you are dead anyway.
Frontline grunt: dead.
Artillery: Primery target for EVERY OTHER artillery on the map, including flyers: dead
Tank driver: dead, horribly burned alive.
Sentinel Pilot: "Hey lets shoot the big walker with the cardboard armour!" dead.
Valkyrie Pilot: "Hey whats that flying there? Rocket lunchers, fire" dead.

Not my job of choice.

I rolled:
99 - An Inquisitor take you as his Acolyte.
48 - You are trained with a Lasgun and Frag Grenades, and given Flak Armor.
100 - An Inquisitor has decided to send you to a Shrine World to become a "comfort" to the Sisters of Battle.
18 - You are trained to operate a Vox Castor.
61 - Valkyrie Pilot

I think I rolled pritty well other than 48.

also you get a double barelled gun strapped to your arm. the books were a bit disappointing though. i dont get that in IG books, space marines can take a hit off a death start and still rip your nadgers off, but in SM books they wear cardboard. ?????

unlucky mate
although the leman russ can take a pummelling before going down, annoying bloody things to fight

Yes, the grey knight novels were a bit lacking. But to be honest, it's hard to make a grey knight likeable. I mean, they even got less emotions then a normal space marine. Getting a view inside of his head would be as interessting as as watching a computer.

The leman russ may take a bit of damage, but because of that, alomst everyone on the map concentrates their fire on them -.-
I mean, i don't play guard. I haven't even played the tabletop for a long time, but i remember the tanks being the primary focus of fire.
"Watch my devastators turning your tank into a switzer cheese with lascannons!"

 

[eatenbyagrue]

Try to be posted on a feral planet, get myself lost in the jungle and try to live out a life there.

Feral planet turns out to be Catachan and you get eaten by an ant.

Me? I'd shoot my commander mid battle and leg it back to the ships we'd land in, claiming to be wounded and helpless. They take me to the medical bay, the ship retreats after a wasteful loss. Repeat every battle until I get too old and can retire. Wait, can they retire?

i'd survive longer than i would in battle. also i'm less afraid of the ant than i am of the mosquitos. filthy creatures they are

Really? Catachan. *Ahem*
http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Catachan
http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Catachan_Jungle_Fighters

You'd survive longer in battle my friend. You time on the planet would be, "Hey, what a strange world. Oh, look, a pretty flowe-" death.

I'd rather face the waves of Nid's then that.

Quoted for the win.

 

[slyywiskers]

They got implants etc.

LOL implants.... anyways id be like a hardcore nija gaurdsmen with two laspistol thingys...or a sniper

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

I rolled Conscript 3 times, guardsman once, and one valkyrie pilot and one scout sentinel
I think the God-Emperor is telling me something
*God-Emperor: Why won't you die Grey?!! just conscript and die already!!!*

one sentinel
one trained guardsmen
another sentinel
another guardsmen, one off being a valkyrie pilot
another sentinel

i would kick your ill-trained green butt mate

Kiss my Conscripted ass.
The Imperium was founded upon an army of conscripts (mostly dead conscripts, but still...)
me and my conspripted friends could blind you with our flashlights. if we're lucky you might fall over and we could hack open the sentinel's canopy

Er... what's a Vox Castor, is that good.

A vox is the comms equipment, most often seen as a back pack mounted set, ranging up to table filling size.
so you're either safe in the HQ..
or out on the frontline serving as the personal aide to a company/regimental commander

 

[Selifator]

If I were a guardsmen, I'd die.

[KING BOB 2896]

Come my fellow Guardsmen!

Point your flashlights upon the Xeno, the Mutant, the Heretic, and let their blazing red light purify this ground for the Emperor!

Also, would totally be an Elysian Drop Trooper.

That is an awesome picture.

 

[S.H.A.R.P.]

I would kill my commander... and make some tea... any questions...

Since I have no idea what an Imperial Guard does in the Warhammer thingy, I'll join up with this guy. As long as I am not a commander that is.

You should do just fine with him, as long as no one see you kill the Commissar otherwise you will be executed for being a heretic.

 

[KING BOB 2896]

Worst, tortured until you redeem yourself. Then death

That is probly most likely what would happen.
